An interesting Friday.

 So far it's been a different one so I suppose the word interesting fits if it goes with bathroom cleaning.  Not so sure of that.  It was a big-time bulb changing on the stepladder with a light fixture wash.  Good thing that doesn't happen too often.  A great bathtub scrub.  That doesn't happen too often as well.   Did a very short road trip with neighbor Judy.  And then shopped for a hepa filter.  I know four stores that don't carry them.  So it's an online try.  I think that will work.  The flowers continue to do their best.  Fresh arrangements are in the house.  The asters are starting to bloom.  I think there are three colors in the garden.  Only one is blooming now.  I learned that they close up at night.  Interesting.  Something new in the garden.  The last of the Susan's are moving out.  Just a few left.  

The interesting something for the rest of the day....knitting again and perhaps a few more buttons.  That's enough excitement for me.  Let's keep it simple sweety or in other words KISS.

Red sails in the morning, Sailors take warning.   The warning sign was miss thinking about a wonderful day with a gorgeous sunrise, but it turned into anything but wonderful. And after yesterday's blog entry, what was hoped to be a good week had a dismal beginning.  Jared called to tell us that Sunday evening Wyatt, their beautiful red poodle stopped eating and by three in the morning of Monday as Jared was driving to Lancing to the Vet at Michigan State, Wyatt died.  Wyatt was one wonderful dog in every sense of the word.  Smart, friendly, protective with absolute understanding about so many things.  Today and the days ahead will be days of mourning eventually becoming times of reflections about all the good that Wyatt brought to us.  His camping chair is now sitting in our living room reminding us of that goodness he gifted us.  After hearing about this event, I took a walk outside to clear my head and heart and found the first of many crocus bl...

 Another great celebration with family with a few little twists as sometimes families can produce.  But celebrate we did with lots of food and lots of card games and just lots of everything that makes memories.  We're tired and glad to say the celebration as good as it was, is over for another year.  And we're looking forward to seeing what a year from now brings.  Today was a day of picking up the pieces to move into busy December. A bit of Christmas decorating happened at home.                                        The stockings were hung.  At least two you see and three you don't. Heidi carried on with the last-minute things that happen at a busy church when scheduling seems to flop over each other during our absence.  We've scheduled another work morning for tomorrow just to make sure that everything is covered for the rest of th...

 It's been a crazy day. It started with more cinnamon rolls and then a little visiting and then it was out the door to the yard where we stayed all day long.  The hum of the chainsaws were in the air but not before the piliated birds visited.  Yes, it was chain saw heaven some would say.  The huge maple tree got its promised trim that was needed. That took a long time with the grandsons stacking wood.   A skill they have learned well and can be demonstrated with great execution.  Some was stacked and branches piled as to dead or alive with many ending up on the burn pile before the day was over.  Others were left for Doug to take care of but not many.   Then it was on to two oak trees and a crab apple.  Add the smoke tree and another very old huge maple tree. The stacked wood was put on some internet advertisement place and all disappeared after supper with a super happy couple dropping by and leaving with a car load of wood for som...
